Untitled

Michael D. Emery

The concerned hand of a lover
    trying to comfort nervous eyes...
Her fingers gingerly hold an empty cup.
The styrofoam
           does not hold the heat she needs.

Rushed down sterile white halls,
with cold plastic floors.
Latex gloved hands,
on arms, and breast, and thigh...

Supplies used by doctors who nod
and poke and prod and feel of her,
asking questions and wanting answers,
when all she can say is,
"He..."
                      "He..."
                                            "He..."
